After some months I bought Nokton 17.5 mm and Panasonic G6, then Phantom 3 Pro and last year Panasonic 100-300.

As my hobby and side job, I shoot videos of weddings, cultural events, and so on. Recently I got idea to step up and upgrade my gear, but I found myself teared up between so much choices. Because of my past experiences, I tend to favourites Nokton lenses. I idealize having whole set of them.

From last year I saved up enough from my videography to afford to buy Voigtlander 10.5 mm, 25 mm and 42.5 mm, with Panasonic G85 body (althought I would spend all of that money saved from videography from last year). For some time I worried that Voigt lens are not stabilized, but Pan G85 body is, so that is good. Idea of having whole Voigt set seems like perfect step up in my videography. Manual focus is still challenge for me, but with 17.5 mm I got used to it and even quite cherish it. What makes me confused are 3 things:

1) Thought of trying to get used to Panasonic lenses with not-so exclusive build quality keeps me from buying one. But I could buy used for 2 years, functional Panasonic Nocti 42.5 mm f/1.2 for 800 dollars, and use it for both videography and photography too (autofocus and stabilization), so it seems like no brainer, but I tend to cling to Voigt lens with my heart. And having whole set of Voigts would keep my "style" somehow unified maybe? If I would take photos with Voigts I would be probably frustrated (with moving objects)... on the other hand this way I could train manual focusing for my videos. So as you can see I am really confused with both options. For same money I could have new Voigt 42.5 mm (I live in Central Europe, so buying electronis from foreign countries is not possible due to high fees).

2) Second problem with buying almost whole set of Voigt lens (10.5, 25, 42.5 and Panasonic G85) is money. I can afford it, but man, it is a lot of money. Even worry of theft of my gear comes in mind. On the other hand, with possibility on reach, I would love to play with all those Voigt lenses in different situations for different purposes on upcoming projects/events...

3) I counted with Nokton 10.5 mm for purpose of using it in future on one of those new one-hand-gimbals, but althought I saw smooth videos of this combo, I saw bad review too (too heavy-front for some gimbals). Officialy weight-wise it is under norm though, so I would have just to try it first I guess...

What do you think? What would you do? What should I do? :-)

Thanks a lot for your answer.

• Voigtländer Nokton 25 mm f0.95, incl. all accessories (lens hood, caps, and manual) in original box

Very popular and high quality full manual standard lens - one of the best for the Micro Four Thirds system, great in low light and with distinct character.
This one comes in excellent condition (both optically and in general), as it was taken good care of at all times.

Price: €690 incl. shipping (from EU)

Although I have worked with still photography and video operating I haven't had much experience with this more artistic film work so I would love some feedback. Most of the shots I was on a very wide aperture, around 0.95-1.4 and kept my ISO very low. I haven't really done any colour correction and I am not entirely happy with the edit. I did it more as a test and rushed the edit a little whilst at a friends house (so I couldn't concentrate 100%). One thing I have noticed is that there is a "judder" effect going on constantly throughout, like it is missing some frames. Not sure if this is because I am using a cracked version of premiere or its the way I exported it.

Anyway here it is (its kind of depressing).

price is $700, paypal gift, regular paypal add 3%, include shipping to CONUS

I live in Milpitas, California, if someone wants to do meet in person (San Jose, Sunnyvale, Campbell, Fremont etc...)

shipping only to verified paypal address will post pictures later

This is a re edit of a horrorshort i made 2 years ago. Shot with panasonic GH2: drifwood's Canis Majoris night hack (class 10 45mb/s card) With Voigtlander Nokton 25mm F0,95 lens

Test filming in HBR mode (1080p25) with very safe "hack" at 33 mbts.

First use of a voigtlander nokton 50mm 1.1. that I've just received. Great lense ! All manual control.

I thought this would be funny to shoot. And a much more interesting subject for the test than the usual garden tree... :)

Export with Clipwrap. Edited in FCP7 with no color correction.

Music : Betty Hutton "Stuff like that there".

Price 600 Euro. Shipping not included.

Location: Bremen, Germany.

Let me know what you guys think. Any helpful advice/tips are encouraged. Thanks!

I'm looking to get the Voigtlander 58mm f1.4 Nokton (Nikon Mount) and adapter to use with my Voigtlander 25mm f0.95 on my GH2. I primarily shoot video.

When researching this lens I've come across a lot of talk about the lens overexposing by 2/3 f-stops and a few people are saying it's the chip that causes this. Am I correct in thinking that this don't be a problem for me on the GH2 as with a the camera wouldn't be able to meter the lens anyway?

Any advice greatly appreciated.

Many Thanks, Matthew

Also a big thanks to Vitaliy, Driftwood and all the testers for the Senda hack that was used on this film.

I'm saving for the Nokton, but its price is a bit prohibitive -at least for my third world economy-, PanaLeica wanted to know if it is a good option and I can get a result close and as cinematic as the Nokton or the step and go straight to the Nokton.

I would like to arguments for and against each.

Thanks.

This was our fun winter project, its in german (no subs), but one can get the meaning anyways I guess. ;-)

Technical details

Camera:

• GH3 (unhacked since no hacks available itm)

Lenses:

• 12mm 1.6 SLR Magic (should not have passed quality control at SLR Magic as you might see)
• 25mm 0.95 Nokton
• 35mm 1.4 Samyang
• 40mm 1.8 Hexanon
• 50mm 1.7 Pentax K
• 85mm 1.4 Samyang (what a nice portrait lens for this money!)

Post:

• Premiere
• After Effects
• bunch of plugins
• bunch of people
• a little time

Additonal Comments: The GH3 is a nice little cam and dids its job very well. I did not really recognize the difference in latitude, but had no direct comparision anyways. Moire did hit us once pretty hard. Until its hacked I prefer GH2 since 72 Mbit is just not enough for Intra.

Any kind of feedback is very welcome.

(edit: Markup preview and final view if completly different!)

Had quite a bit of M4/3 gear for my GH2's & selling some of it on ebay. Just thought I'd post the links here in case anyone's interested. It's all really well looked after stuff.

The barely has a tiny minor cosmetic dent that does not effect any operation of the lens.

I have to let this baby go... this is really a good chance to have it. This lens works in a perfect manner.

I'm the first owner, the lens comes in the box with the proof of purchase and with everything that came with it.... $750
